Passionate about Stable Isotopes?
Testimonials
I was new stable isotope research before attending SIBS. Despite being new to this field, I found myself leaving the workshop with both direction and understanding that I didn't think possible in just a week. The presenters were all incredibly knowledgable and from a broad range of disciplines. I talked with plant and soil researchers about how their work might be applicable to my research in entomology, which was a unique opportunity for cross discipline discussion. It was the perfect atmosphere to learn, chat and make friends. I would reccomend it to any researcher interested in isotopes!

Chasing the Storm
During SIBS 2020, a surprise hailstorm hit Canberra with golf ball–sized hail. Instead of running for cover, we grabbed our vials! Soon we were sampling hailstones to analyse how isotope ratios vary from surface to core — pure scientific curiosity in action!
I’m really glad I attended the SIBS 2026 workshop during my first year of PhD. The knowledge and skills I gained will be extremely useful for my research. The workshop felt like an intensive module on isotopes, offering a wealth of information. It was also a fantastic networking opportunity, allowing me to connect with others working on similar research topics. The food and accommodation were well managed, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I think it was an excellent event—I truly loved it.

EucFACE Expedition
Visiting EucFACE during SIBS 2023 was unforgettable — the world’s only mature forest CO2 enrichment site! Our hosts from Western Sydney University showed how isotopes reveal how rising CO2 affects soils, plants, and microbes.
SIBS was such an important learning experience! Building a background in isotopes science is something I have wanted and needed for my career, but it's not something that's widely taught in Ecology; there just aren't any courses in most undergraduate or Master's degrees. What makes SIBS so unique is having over a week where everyone - attendees, instructors, organizers - are entirely focused on isotopes, so you can make those big knowledge gains and come up with new ideas in such a short time. As an added bonus, the people are all amazing and are building such a robust professional community!
